Yes, you do, but with a penalty.

Well, characters tend to threaten spaces in front of, behind, and to the sides in a sort of ring.
I suppose if a character is lying on the ground prone, he'd sort of threaten the spaces in the same ring, which would now be to the sides, and upwards, so he'd get attacks of opportunity against things falling at him and to the sides.
Do the books say anything about 3D squares?

Actually, you threaten in three dimentions all the time normally. If you're in a 10' tall by 5' wide hallway, and someone with spider climb moves past you on the ceiling in a manner that provokes an AoO you can smack 'em, because you threaten the 5ft above you just the same as the 5ft in front or to the sides of you.
If you're flying or swimming you'd threaten 5ft under you also, but for most normal circumstances the ground or floor takes out any need for that.
